A 72-foot-long Kanwar became a major attraction in Udakishunganj, Madhepura district, on Saturday, drawing the attention of devotees and locals alike. The massive Kanwar yatra saw enthusiastic participation from people of all age groups, including children, the elderly, and women. On Saturday night, the devotees rested at the Hareli Temple in Udakishunganj.

Laxman Thakur, a participant in the Kanwar yatra, stated that all the devotees are residents of Shreepur Chakla in Madhepura. They began their journey from Shreepur Chakla on Thursday, carrying the Kanwar.

The devotees are expected to reach Singheshwar Temple on Monday and perform the Jalabhishek (offering of water) to Baba Singheshwarnath with the holy water brought from Mahadevpur Ghat. The yatra includes Laxman Thakur, Chandan Yadav, Bijendra Yadav, Sanjay Malakar, and Ratna Kumar, among others. A large number of people gathered in Udakishunganj to witness the 72-foot-long Kanwar, adding to the vibrant religious atmosphere.
